Profile:
Charlie Hallows made cricket his life, with a first-class career that ran
from 1914 to 1932, and followed this with years of professional league
cricket, holding posts in England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. After
retiring as a player, he went into coaching, and was chief coach first of
Worcestershire, then of Lancashire, a position he held until his retirement
at the age of 74. As a cricketer his name is always paired with that of his
opening partner Makepiece, forming as they did the solid opening foundation
that led Lancashire to three successive championships in 1927, 1928 and
1929. Makepiece was mostly a defensive player and Hallows was the ideal
foil, making runs quickly and with style. Tall, slim and handsome, Hallows
played with an upright style with command of a wide range of shots. An
excellent fielder, he was very quick on his feet. His finest year was 1928,
when he completed the rare feat of 1,000 runs in May, culminating with an
innings of 232 on May 30th. Playing in an era dominated by splendid opening
batsmen - Hobbs and Sutcliffe, Sandham, Holmes and more, he was only picked
twice for England (DL 2000).
